Enjoyable and relatively quick read. Didn’t grip me as much as I had hoped, but Anna and Quan’s story was sweet and honestly the highlight. Anna and her family drove me up a wall, and often felt like a losing battle. The proposal party chapters had me worked up enough that I needed to walk away for a bit 😂
Overall, a sweet story of self-discovery, personal growth, grief, and found family.

Wow. I can only say wow.
This book turned out to be so much more than I expected. Being a part of the Kissing Quotient series I expected this to be also about an autistic protagonist trying to find love and struggling but this was just so much more complex and also darker as I expected.
First of all I absolutely adored Annas and Quans love story. The way Quan was so patient and kind and loving with Anna right away melted my heart. The way their struggles matched another and made them both able to help each other moved me.
This was not just a story of lust, crushes and passion. It was that too but mainly it was a story of trust, commitment and deep love. And also a story of tragedy, loss and grief.
I loved to see Annas Story arch. It was so complex and multi layered. I liked the fact that she didnt just miraculously healed and felt better just cause everything between her and Quan was resolved.
I loved how the author was able to portray mental health struggles in such a respectful but still impactful and real manner. So many times I just wanted to hug Anna and tell her that everything is gonna be okay.
Im impressed how the author always manages to create sucht complex and loving relationships in her books with autistic protagonists while still not making their autism the center of their character.
And the sex scenes? I love how they are always the right mixture of sexual tension, spice but also based on consent and love.

I think out of the trilogy, this one might be my least favorite. I did enjoy it, but the open relationship and “cheating” didn’t feel right to me.
